Fixed the reboot bug, and made many enhancements and modifications. There will be a slight, insignificant drop in performance as a trade off to fixing the reboot bug. Still blows the pants off any RK3368 firmware.

Please test on Z4 - there should be perfect hardware compatibility. AP6330 devices should work as well.

I know, I made it for the 4PDA users originally because they don't have any Z4 firmware that's current and high performing, that's why it's in Russian.

Keep testing, in a day or two your device is next for a full port including display clock and ir remote.

They were always enabled. They just didn't display in menu unless you connected a USB or initiated a wifi adb.

I had them enabled by default because I disable hardware overlays programmatically and it requires developer options to be enabled by default.

But something is wrong, Kodi after a few seconds.Box turns off

.. need a stronger power supply. And what device do you have?

The 'true octacore' versions with the power menu bug (unable to reboot/power off) run at full speed and have no stability issues and are very power efficient despite the cpu hack.

This build with the power menu fix is going to need adjusting so that users can run it with stock power supplies. It's possible it may never be as efficient. I don't know yet, it'll take time and testing to adjust it.

I'm sorry, that I can't help with. I never use Play Services and can't say one way or the other what's the problem there. Maybe someone else can chime in.

The reason for the switch is that it will warm up more ..

I wish it was not working because it was promising ..

[Shomari]

In seven months nobody has ever reported overheating with my firmware. Not once.

I have never seen overheating in any of my testing.

The firmware runs the cpu 696-1608 (although this release does not scale all cores simultaneously) and requires adequate power to run. That's all there is to it.
